Tecmo Koei has announced that they are porting Ninja Gaiden 3: Razors Edge from the Wii U and bringing the experience back to the Xbox 360 and PS3 on April 2nd for North America and April 5th for Europe. This new port will add even more content, such as costumes for those that enjoy customisation options as well 25 extra challenge missions. Considering that the Wii U version already added a whole host of new content as well as drastically changing the game in various ways for the better, Razors Edge for the Xbox 360 and PS3 is looking like a very worthwhile purchase – especially for those that skipped the original Ninja Gaiden 3 release.

Here is a trailer for the original Ninja Gaiden 3: Razor’s Edge for Wii U:

As one of the many people that avoided the original Ninja Gaiden 3 release back in March of 2012 (due to poor reviews and not enjoying the demo), I am hopeful that this update will transform the game into what I was expecting it to be the first time around.

Capcom has announced that the previously Nintendo 3DS-exclusive Resident Evil Revelations will in fact be getting a second release on all of the current gen systems on May 21st of this year. Considering that this is a handheld game that is being ported over to the more powerful home consoles, Capcom also revealed that the re-releases will receive HD graphical upgrades as well as having an improved online component. A few extra “bells and whistles” was also stated to be included in the upcoming release.

Here is the official trailer for the re-release:

Resident Evil: Revelations released last year for the Nintendo 3DS, where it received very favourable reviews, so bringing the experience to a wider audience is certainly a great move by Capcom.

It has been announced that Project x Zone – a previously Japan-only RPG for the Nintendo 3DS – will in fact be getting a release this coming summer in North America, Europe and Australia.

Project x Zone is a rather unique style of RPG that borrows elements from fighting games in order to make the combat both flashy and exciting, whilst rewarding the player’s skill for creating successful combos. On top of this, the game is primarily known for having multiple characters and universes from Capcom (Street Fighter, Devil May Cry), Namco-Bandai (Tekken, Tales of Vesparia) and Sega (Virtua Fighter, Valkyria Chronicles) – all interacting with each other in a giant fan-dream crossover story.

Here is an extended trailer for Project x Zone:

I have personally had my eye on this game since it was first announced as a Japan-only title, so I’m ecstatic to have the chance to play it for myself, in English.

Get ready to catch them all once more – as Pokemon X and Y launches worldwide in October 2013, only for the Nintendo 3DS.

This next entry promises to provide the brilliant RPG experience that we all know, love and have grown to expect from the series, except this time it will be set in a completely 3D world – unlike anything that has been previously released by the franchise.

Here is the official reveal trailer:

Looks impressive, right? I know that I’m interested in seeing how the games will turn out!

GAME, the UK’s biggest gaming store chain has had a very troubled past few months – going into administration and desperately looking for a buyer. After a relatively long negotiation period, the chain finally found a buyer in the form of OpCapita. A restructuring of the management positions occurred shortly afterwards.

Fast forward a few weeks and it seems that operations are now being restored throughout the remaining GAME/Gamestation stores as well as their website, as both EA and Nintendo have once again begun to supply them with their newest titles. It has still yet to be seen when other companies such as Capcom will begin to follow suit, but chances are that it will probably be in the very near future.
